she a few weeks ago gave a briefing here in the pentagon to the press corps. she may not be known much outside of washington, but inside the circle of military families, very, very highly respected. >> yeah, i read today she was one of those generals' wives that was accessible and part of the regular folks living day to day. today we heard that david petraeus wants to fix his marriage. has there been any word on how she is reacting to that news? will she stand by her husband? do we know? >> well, we don't. i mean, let's be clear, this is a deeply personal, painful and private matter for mrs. petraeus. she does not live her personal life in the public eye, very professional publicly. and simply is not one of those people in washington who lives her life out there. i can only imagine how painful this is for her. she grew up in a military family. if you want to talk about army royalty, it's holly petraeus, not dave petraeus. her father was a superintendent at west point. the record of military service in her family goes all the way back to the revolutionary war.
